Chapter 4 Retirement
The woman is wearing mourning clothes, and there is no beading in her hair, which is like a plain white silk flower. He was so weak that he gasped when he spoke.
But a few words, but pushed Mrs. He to the point of public criticism.
Isn't she just a snob!
There is nothing wrong with this statement.
When the He family didn't have a scholar, it was just an ordinary family. No matter how unruly Shen Wei is, she is also the daughter of the largest embroidery workshop in Fengzhou. How is he worthy?
In order to win Shen Wei's favor, He Chu worked hard and diligently to get such a marriage.
Now turn around and deny anyone. It's really not what a man does.
The old man of the Shen family was worried, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he had to stand up for Shen Wei. After thinking about it for a while, he reprimanded him as an elder.
"Your He family is really deceiving people!"
He originally wanted to say a few casual words and handle them lightly. After all, what Shen Hewen said was right, Shen Hua's face must be useful in the future.
Can't let a little scholar be delayed.
But at this moment, Shen Hua trotted up to him as if begging for shelter.
Complaining loudly.
"Clan elder, although father is gone, but with you here, their He family will completely become the Shen family."
As she spoke, she lifted her chin: "It's always a good day to quit the engagement, but you chose to humiliate me like this today because you want me to go with my father and stepmother."
Inexplicably, Shen Xue, who was pointed out, choked: ...Why did you take me with you! Little hooves!
"You child, what are you talking about?"
Shen Wei wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, implying something: "What the stepmother said is that most of the people in this house are surnamed Shen, the clan elders are here, the second uncle is here, and all relatives of the clan are here. I?"
As soon as the voice fell, the surrounding commotion gradually rose.
After all, if Shen Huaruo really looked for death and life today, if those present ignored him, everyone could not escape the blame. Ugly inside and out.
Soon, someone finally came forward to help.
"What's wrong with my family, Yangyang, who is beautiful and kind, and you are the one who slanders me like this?"
"Now it's said that Yangyang is in poor health, why didn't he mention it when he proposed marriage?"
"Bah, it's a thing of power, a mere scholar really regards himself as a character? If you go to Shengjing Street, the most important thing you need is dignitaries."
Shen Hewen calmly helped the clan elder to come forward. Take a stand even if you don't want to.
"Your He family begged for this marriage, but now you seem to be avoiding it. Why, is it possible that our Shen family is a high ranking person to join your He family?"
Shen Hua didn't want to make trouble anymore.
No matter how disgusting the mother and son of the He family are, they can't compare to the sinister and cunning Xiaoxiao who wants to take the hard work of father's life's foundation as his own.
She glanced sideways at Yi Cui, Yi Cui understood, and hurriedly returned the plain jade to Mrs. He in front of her.
"Among the ladies' jewellery, this jade is the most inconspicuous one, but after all, it was left to the future bride by the He family when they were engaged, so they had to be thrown in the corner to collect dust."
"Today, if the He family doesn't come to withdraw the marriage, the lady will come to return the marriage someday."
She was served by Shen Hua, so what she said naturally conveyed Shen Hua's meaning.
Madam He's face darkened.
Shen Hua smiled slightly at this.
"It's not a good marriage, and I can't be in a tiger and wolf den like the He family, right? Mrs. He put away the token, and thereafter, the two families will have nothing to do with each other."
He Chuxin tightened his mind. It's fine if Shen Wei doesn't agree, but Shen Wei can't wait to get rid of him immediately, which makes him feel empty. He takes a deep look at Shen Wei, and goes forward to salute.
"He is really ashamed, I just hope Mrs. Shen can find another good son-in-law."
Tut.
What kind of gentleman are you pretending to be?
But when there is no one, she blocks her way.
—Yangyang, that's my mother's order, I have to obey as a filial son, but I only have you in my heart, please give me some more time.
Later, he quickly got engaged to another girl. When the scenery is gone, I come to look for her again.
——Yangyang, I don’t want to either, I have no personal feelings for the wife of the Zhou family, I begged my mother, she also allows you to join the He family, although it is a concubine, but in my heart, you are the one I want to marry people.
Shen Hua only felt a shock.
This was the case in the past, and it is the same now.
As for the good son-in-law, it is unknown how many years she can live with this unbelievable body.
Shen Wei doesn't want to marry anymore. Without disturbing others, I just want to spend all my energy on the Shen family.
She glanced at He Chu lightly.
"Let's not mention what I will do in the future. Mr. He might as well think about it. Once the news of today is spread, which family in Fengzhou City is willing to entrust the girl to the He family."
She, if she is not good, she will not be able to see the good of others.
He Chu's eyes turned red, as if he was the one who was innocent and abandoned.
Mrs.
"What's the deal with her, Brother Chu, let's go."
She pulled He Chu as if getting rid of the dirt, and she seemed to be running away while walking.
Lips opened and closed, and the words jumped out one by one.
"You are a scholar, and if you pass the country test next time, you will be the master of Juren. If you continue to strive and go to Beijing to catch up with the test, Chunwei will get a good ranking. Some blind people must regret it and rush to show their courtesies!"
Why would she worry about not being able to find a good family?
The ancestors of the Zhou family were officials. Although they are lonely now, the lady of the Zhou family can compare Shen Wei with one finger. She is famous for being well-educated. The Zhou family had already sent someone over to inquire.
Shen Hua scoffed when she heard the words.
Is it true that the streets are full of Juren masters?
After the mother and son of the He family left, the smell of gunpowder in the air never faded. Everyone's eyes turned back and forth on the thorny Shen Wei.
But Shen Wei knelt in front of the coffin, burning paper money without saying a word.
It's outrageous to be quiet, and she didn't make trouble anymore.
She couldn't afford to make a fuss about the situation in front of her.
She couldn't stop Shen Qu from sending the mourning basin.
In my dynasty, the family law is iron-clad, and the deceased can only enter the ancestral grave if he throws a basin on his knees. If there are no descendants under the knees, they will be adopted by the family. Or let your nephew do it for you.
This world is harsh on women. My own daughter can only watch from afar.
If Shen Hua has a son-in-law, he must fight for it.
But now...
Even without Shen Qu, there would be five sons under Shen Changhe's name. In the Shen family, except for Shen Wei, everyone is prosperous.
Shen Wei is weak and can't make a fuss, and just wants to send Shen Wei off for the last time.
The fire engulfed and burned the gold ingot to ashes, and at the same time, it shone on the woman's pale face, adding a touch of blood.
As for other things, as long as she has breath, she will definitely count slowly.
finally.
Shen Qu raised the clay basin high with his left hand, and dropped it heavily to the ground.
With a loud bang, debris was everywhere.
The surrounding cries gradually rose. Even if no one is sincere. But Shen Hua's heart still trembled, and the crystal tears couldn't be suppressed and rolled down hot.
Si Li shouted loudly.
"Lift the coffin!"
